Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 412

The Mentorship Academy in Dongyang County had just rang the bell, and the sound of children reading aloud could already be heard from Qi Academy.

Lu Yange stood on Xiaoyun Mountain, in front of her was a pipeline, and a school was built on each side of the official road.

Today, there are nearly 300 children in Meng Xueyuan, most of whom are from near Dongyang County, and a small number of children live a little farther away.In order to take care of these long-distance children, Mengxue Hall can replace meals at noon.If you bring your own rice, someone from the school will cook it for them, and you can pick it up during the lunch break.

There are more students in the Qi Academy than in the Meng Xueguan. Most of the children who are a little over ten years old, most of them come to the Qi Academy to learn skills, but not many study hard.

The country people are poor, and it is difficult to learn a craft.Those who have craftsmanship must be passed on to the children and grandchildren of the family. Who is willing to teach others their craftsmanship for no reason.

But Qi Academy is different. Qi Academy has carpentry classes, bricklaying classes, candle making classes, etc.The carpentry class is divided into carpenters, sawsmiths, carvings, umbrellas, barrels, nail scales, engravings, etc. Anyone who can touch wood is counted.In the bricklaying class, there are house building, stove building, stone cutting, street building, well repair, muddy water, handyman and so on.

Zhou Yang has gone to almost all the craftsmen he can find.In addition, he is in the army, and there are many such craftsmen in the army. It cannot be said that they are proficient, but at least they can live with this little skill.

People in the army will let them spare time to teach at Qi Academy in Dongyang County for ten days and half a month. Those who are patient, skilled, and practical will be hired by Qi Academy for a long time.

As for craftsmen outside, those who are willing can come to Dongyang County when they have time, and give a few lessons to the children of Qi Academy.If you don't want to, Zhou Yang will not force you.

These courses are only held three times a day and studied separately.

The reason why these courses are offered in the college is because most of the children in the college are born in poverty, so that they can read and write, and with more hands-on skills, at least they will have a better life in the future.

Don't let the children of Qi Academy learn anything, most of the children can learn a craft, and they can just build a wooden stool and a wooden bucket when they go back.Or they can repair houses, build walls and tiles, not to mention how good it is, just barely enough.

Because Qi Academy has added many practical courses, the number of children enrolled this year is more than 300 more than last year. Now Qi Academy has nearly 15 students aged [-] to [-], and nearly half of them are from other countries. Counties and towns.

It's not that other counties and towns don't have private school ethnology, it's just that most of those private schools are run by big local households and are rarely open to children from poor families.

Even if there are some elementary schools led by Princess Changle, Qi Academy, they don't offer shingle courses like those in Dongyang County.Some Academies heard that the Academies in Dongyang County actually let their children do carpentry and masonry, making them dirty all day long, which was very insulting and polite. They were not very happy, and felt that their status as Academies had been lowered. .Among them, two Qi colleges have secretly contacted Dongyang County to discuss whether they can let the woodworkers, bricklayers, masons and other masters here also go to their place to hold classes.Don't ask for too much, even if there is one lesson a day.

Lu Yangge never expected that Zhou Yang would do so many things in Dongyang County after only one year of absence.

She is not pedantic, but her vision is much broader than that of ordinary people.

These courses established by Zhou Yang are too practical in Lu Yangge's opinion.

The children of Mengxue Hall, because they can go directly to Qi Academy after graduation, and the children can't do much work when they go back, most of them are still willing to send their children.What they originally thought was that it would not be a bad idea to let the children learn a few words while the children were young and the tuition fees were cheap.

But when Qi Academy opened a few craft classes, many parents had hope in their eyes. They originally planned to drop out of Mengxue Hall after finishing their studies, and they also considered whether they should let their children go to Qi Academy to study for a year or two, maybe they can learn A handicraft that can be passed down the family.

The Mentorship Academy and the Qi Academy in Dongyang County are considered the best among all the colleges. It has to be said that most of the credit is due to Zhou Yang.

It's not that Lu Yangge doesn't understand Zhou Yang's thoughts, it's just that she is not a girl who is really in love, and with such a heavy burden on her shoulders, let alone talking about love, she will not even allow her to look at a man more than once.

Compared with Jiangshan Sheji, love, life, and the safety of nephews and nieces are too light and thin, and it's not worth her worrying about it.

Lu Yange came out this time, saying it was for disaster relief, rather than sending good seeds to farmers.

Spring plowing is just around the corner, and those who can survive the cold winter can survive by eating wild vegetables in spring.But they have no seeds. Last winter, most of the farmers ate all the seeds needed for spring plowing in order to survive. Now that there are no seeds, it means that there will be no harvest in the coming year.

Seeing the ragged and disheveled farmers dragging their children and daughters to collect good seeds, Lu Yange couldn't help frowning.

"After a cold winter, there are many children in Mengxue Hall and Qi Academy. Why are there so many people who have no food or seeds?"

This is not in line with common sense. If there are really so many disaster victims in Dongyang County, let alone the number of children in Mengxue Hall and Qi Academy, it would be good to have the normal number of enrollment last year.

The poor can't even afford to eat, so who wants to send their children to study and read.Even if you can learn the craft, it's not enough, and the craft can't be learned in a day. For most people, the most important thing is to have enough food.

The little table heard the words and went to inquire.

The emperor's guess is correct, there is not enough to eat, why are there so many children studying?
Soon, the little table ran over bumpingly, and came to Lu Yange to report back.

"Your Majesty, the servant went to inquire. Because the Mengxue Hall and the Qi Academy provide children with a free lunch, as long as they are children of the Mengxue Hall and the Qi Academy, they can have a full meal at school. Therefore, many people have tried their best. Send the children to Mengxue Hall and Qi Academy, including some girls, just thinking that the children can have a full meal in the academy and survive, and save food for the family."

Lu Yange suddenly said: "No wonder."

Lu Yange asked again: "Then where does the money come from for this daily meal?"

Naturally, I have also inquired about these small tables: "It was subsidized by General Zhou, including the expenses of the masters in the carpentry class and bricklayer class, which was also subsidized by General Zhou."

Speaking of this, even the little table couldn't help but praise: "General Zhou is really a good person. He pays for Meng Xueguan and Qi Academy, but never shows his merits in front of the emperor. It can be seen that this person has a good character."

Zhou Yang has a good personality?

Lu Yange glanced at the small table, wanting to refute, but in the end he didn't speak.

Zhou Yang, if you say he is good, he is really good.He has outstanding looks and a prominent family background, and is very smart and able to do things.

But if you want to say that he is not good, Lu Yange didn't know where to complain for a while.

Only the death of Lu Yuanshan and the existence of Zhou Yang made Lu Yangge fearful in the end.

It's better to stay away from this person!
